f. Use the
uncompress
(1M) and
tar
(1M) commands to uncompress and expand
the patch(es) in the
tar
file, as instructed in the
README
.
Caution –
Do not use the
patchadd
(1M) command line that is given in the
README
to install the patch(es). See Section B.1.3 “To Modify the Boot Image” on page B-5 to
install relocatable versions of the patch(es).
B.1.3 To Modify the Boot Image
1. Install the driver packages into the boot image.
The following example installs all packages previously downloaded into the
/<
export_public
>
directory.
Note –
Refer to the
install_order
file for the proper order in which to install the
packages. You must follow this order for a successful installation so the driver will
run.
2. Install any needed patches into the boot image.
The following example installs any patch(es) that were previously downloaded into
the
/<
export_public
>
directory. Repeat the
patchadd
command for all the patches
you need to add.
3. Make sure the host name, its IP address, and its Ethernet address have been added
to the name service (
/etc
files, NIS, or NIS+).
4. Run the
add_install_client
(1M) command to add the host with the host
adapter as a boot/install client.
The example shows the
add_install_client
command followed by the name of
the host followed by its platform name.
